The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of Holme Valley Lions Club Charitable Incorporated Organisation (the Charity) for the 12-month period ending 30 June 2022.

- supporting youth to develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals;
- promoting the Voluntary Sector for the public benefit by associating with local authorities in a common effort to advance education and provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation or other leisure time occupation to improve the conditions of life of people in local, national and international communities;
- promoting volunteering;

The trustees can confirm that the CIO does not have any outstanding liabilities or debts.
